Most view reading as a solitary activity and probably enjoy that aspect of the past-time. While reading solo might be easiest for a distraction-free page turning session, sometimes you just need to talk about a book with someone.

How many times have you gotten excited about what’s going on in a book only to find no one around you understands because they’re not reading along with you? You’re not alone in this struggle, and we have the answer for you.: join a book club.

Participating in a group of people reading the same story as you can create a community to process with, run questions by, and a space to share your insights. Surround yourself with like-minded people to learn from and alongside. A book club might take your reading experience to another level of enjoyment, and who knows, you might even make some new friends in the process!
